📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Sevilla beat Real Sociedad 0-1 at Reale Arena, Regular Season - 27, in the La Liga. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Real Sociedad 1.39 xG and Sevilla 1.24 xG, a combined 2.63. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Real Sociedad fell 1.4 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Real Sociedad attack 0.96 / defence 0.90 against Sevilla attack 1.23 / defence 1.00, drawn from 64/64 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Real Sociedad 40% | Draw 26% | Sevilla 34%, with Real Sociedad to win its most likely call at 40%. The actual Sevilla win had been the model's second-ranked read at 34%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 49%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 74% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 53% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 42% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Real Sociedad 39%, Sevilla 45%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 47%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Real Sociedad's trading profile (64 games, 32 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 36% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 42% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 34% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Sevilla's trading profile (64 games, 32 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 58% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Real Sociedad 1.47 PPG, Sevilla 1.16 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Sevilla win broke the near-deadlock. Real Sociedad (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.28 scoring average — below par going forward. Sevilla (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.50 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
